CHANGELOG.rst

This document contains the ``fslpy`` release history in reverse chronological
order.


3.5.3 (Tuesday 9th February 2021)
---------------------------------


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fixed a bug in :func:`.featanalysis.loadClusterResults` (!281).


3.5.2 (Friday 29th January 2021)
---------------------------------


Fixed
^^^^^


* Adjusted the :func:`.dicom.scanDir` function so that it will set a
  default value for ``SeriesDescription`` if it is not present in the
  ``dcm2niix`` ``json`` output (!279).
* Fixed some issues with API documentation generation (!279).


3.5.1 (Thursday 21st January 2021)
----------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* New :func:`.featanalysis.loadFsf` function, for loading arbitrary ``.fsf``
  files (!276).


Fixed
^^^^^


* Adjustments to :mod:`.dicom` tests to work with different versions of
  ``dcm2niix`` (!277).


3.5.0 (Wednesday 20th January 2021)
-----------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* New ``fsl_anat.tree``, for use with the :mod:`.filetree` package (!264).
* New :func:`.fsl_prepare_fieldmap` wrapper function (!265).
* The :class:`.fslmaths` wrapper now supports the ``fslmaths -s`` option
  via the :meth:`.fslmaths.smooth` method (!271).


Fixed
^^^^^


* Windows/WSL-specific workaround to the :func:`fsl.utils.run.run` function to
  avoid console windows from popping up, when used from a graphical program
  (!272).


3.4.0 (Tuesday 20th October 2020)
---------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* New :mod:`.tbss` wrapper functions for `TBSS
  <https://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki/TBSS>`_ commands.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* Calls to functions in the :mod:`.assertions` module are disabled when a
  wrapper function is called with ``cmdonly=True``.


3.3.3 (Wednesday 13th October 2020)
-----------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :func:`.fileOrImage` (and related) decorators will not manipulate the
  return value of a decorated function if an argument ``cmdonly=True`` is
  passed. This is so that wrapper functions will directly return the command
  that would be executed when ``cmdonly=True``.


3.3.2 (Tuesday 12th October 2020)
---------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* Most :func:`.wrapper` functions now accept an argument called ``cmdonly``
  which, if ``True``, will cause the generated command-line call to be
  returned, instead of executed.


3.3.1 (Thursday 8th October 2020)
---------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :func:`.affine.decompose` and :func:`.affine.compose` functions now
  have the ability to return/accept shear components.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fixed a bug in the :func:`.affine.decompose` function which was corrupting
  the scale estimates when given an affine containing shears.


3.3.0 (Tuesday 22nd September 2020)
-----------------------------------


Added
^^^^^

* New ported versions of various core FSL tools, including ``imrm``, ``imln``,
  ``imtest``, ``fsl_abspath``, ``remove_ext``, ``Text2Vest``, and
  ``Vest2Text``.
* New :func:`.gps` function, wrapping the FSL ``gps`` command.
* New :func:`.vest.loadVestFile` and :func:`.vest.generateVest` functions.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* Updates to the BIDS filetree specification.


Fixed
^^^^^


* The :class:`.CoefficientField` class now works with alternate reference
  images (i.e. a reference image with different dimensions to that which
  was originally used when the non-linear transformation was calculated).


3.2.2 (Thursday 9th July 2020)
------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :func:`.fslsub.func_to_cmd` function allows more fine-grained control
  over whether the script file is removed after the job has finished running.


3.2.1 (Tuesday 23rd June 2020)
------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* Minor updates to documentation.


3.2.0 (Thursday 11th June 2020)
-------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* A new :func:`.fslsub.hold` function to wait on previously submitted jobs, to
  be used in place of the ``wait`` function.


Removed
^^^^^^^


* The :func:`.fslsub.wait` (and :func:`.run.wait`) function has been removed, as
  repeated calls to ``qstat`` can adversely affect the cluster job submission
  system.


3.1.0 (Thursday 21st May 2020)
------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* New :mod:`.cifti` module, providing classes and functions for working with
  `CIFTI <https://www.nitrc.org/projects/cifti/>`_ data.
* New :func:`.winpath` and :func:`wslpath` functions for working with paths
  when using FSL in a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) environment.
* New :func:`.wslcmd` function for generating a path to a FSL command installed
  in a WSL environment.
* New :meth:`.Platform.fslwsl` attribute for detecting whether FSL is installed
  in a WSL environment.
* New :meth:`.Image.niftiDataType` property.
* The :class:`.FileTree` class has been updated to allow creation of
  deep copies via the new :meth:`.FileTree.copy` method.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* :func:`.Image` objects created from ``numpy`` arrays will be NIFTI1 or
  NIFTI2, depending on the value of the ``$FSLOUTPUTTYPE`` environment
  variable.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Updated the :func:`.fast` wrapper to support some single-character
  command-line flags.


3.0.1 (Wednesday 15th April 2020)
---------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :func:`.isMelodicDir` function now accepts directories that do not end
  with ``.ica``, as long as all required files are present.
* Added the ``dataclasses`` backport, so ``fslpy`` is now compatible with
  Python 3.6 again.


3.0.0 (Sunday 29th March 2020)
------------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* New wrapper functions for the FSL :class:`.fslstats`, :func:`.prelude` and
  :func:`applyxfm4D` commands.
* New ``firstDot`` option to the :func:`.path.getExt`,
  :func:`.path.removeExt`, and :func:`.path.splitExt`, functions, offering
  rudimentary support for double-barrelled filenames.
* The :func:`.nonlinear.applyDeformation` function now accepts a ``premat``
  affine, which is applied to the input image before the deformation field.
* New :class:`.SubmitParams` class, providing a higer level interface for
  cluster submission.
* New :meth:`.FileTree.load_json` and  :meth:`.FileTree.save_json` methods.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* ``fslpy`` now requires a minimum Python version of 3.7.
* The default value for the ``partial_fill`` option to :meth:`.FileTree.read`
  has been changed to ``False``. Accordingly, the :class:`.FileTreeQuery`
  calls the :meth:`.FileTree.partial_fill` method on the ``FileTree`` it is
  given.
* The :func:`.gifti.relatedFiles` function now supports files with
  BIDS-style naming conventions.
* The :func:`.run.run` and :func:`.run.runfsl` functions now pass through any
  additional keyword arguments to ``subprocess.Popen`` or, if ``submit=True``,
  to :func:`fslsub.submit`.
* The :func:`.fslsub.submit` function now accepts an ``env`` option, allowing
  environment variables to be specified.
* The :func:`.run.runfsl` function now raises an error on attempts to
  run a command which is not present in ``$FSLDIR/bin/`` (e.g. ``ls``).
* The :mod:`.bids` module has been updated to support files with any
  extension, not just those in the core BIDS specification (``.nii``,
  ``.nii.gz``, ``.json``, ``.tsv``).
* The return value of a function decorated with :func:`.fileOrImage`,
  :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText` is now accessed via an attribute
  called ``stdout``, instead of ``output``.
* Output files of functions decorated with :func:`.fileOrImage`,
  :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText`, which have been loaded via the
  :attr:`.LOAD` symbol, can now be accessed as attributes of the returned
  results object, in addition to being accessed as dict items.
* Wrapper functions decorated with the :func:`.fileOrImage`,
  :func:`.fileOrArray`, or :func:`.fileOrText` decorators will now pass all
  arguments and return values through unchanged if an argument called ``submit``
  is passed in, and is set to ``True`` (or any non-``False``
  value). Furthermore, in such a scenario a :exc:`ValueError` will be raised if
  any in-memory objects or ``LOAD`` symbols are passed.
* The :func:`.fileOrText` decorator has been updated to work with input
  values - file paths must be passed in as ``pathlib.Path`` objects, so they
  can be differentiated from input values.
* Loaded :class:`.Image` objects returned by :mod:`fsl.wrappers` functions
  are now named according to the wrapper function argument name.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Updated the :func:`.prepareArgs` function to use ``shlex.split`` when
  preparing shell command arguments, instead of performing a naive whitespace
  split.
* Fixed some bugs in the :func:`.fslsub.info` and :func:`.fslinfo.wait`
  functions.
* Fixed the :func:`.DeformationField.transform` method so it works with
  a single set of coordinates.
* :class:`.Image` creation does not fail if ``loadMeta`` is set, and a
  sidecar file containing invalid JSON is present.

Removed
^^^^^^^


* Removed the deprecated ``.StatisticAtlas.proportions``,
  ``.StatisticAtlas.coordProportions``, and
  ``.StatisticAtlas.maskProportions`` methods.
* Removed the deprecated ``indexed`` option to :meth:`.Image.__init__`.
* Removed the deprecated ``.Image.resample`` method.
* Removed the deprecated ``.image.loadIndexedImageFile`` function.
* Removed the deprecatd ``.FileTreeQuery.short_names`` and
  ``.Match.short_name`` properties.
* Removed the deprecated ``.idle.inIdle``, ``.idle.cancelIdle``,
  ``.idle.idleReset``, ``.idle.getIdleTimeout``, and
  ``.idle.setIdleTimeout`` functions.
* Removed the deprecated ``resample.calculateMatrix`` function.


2.8.4 (Monday 2nd March 2020)
-----------------------------


Added
^^^^^


* Added a new ``partial_fill`` option to :meth:`.FileTree.read`, which
  effectively eliminates any variables which only have one value. This was
  added to accommodate some behavioural changes that were introduced in 2.8.2.



2.8.3 (Friday 28th February 2020)
---------------------------------


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fixed a bug in the :meth:`.Image.save` method.

-----------------------------------


Added
^^^^^

* New :func:`.mghimage.voxToSurfMat` function, for creating a
  voxel-to-freesurfer affine transform from any image.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :class:`.ImageWrapper` now maintains its own image data cache, rather
  than depending on ``nibabel``.
* Internal changes to avoid using the deprecated
  ``nibabel.dataobj_images.DataobjImage.get_data`` method.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Improved the algorithm used by the :func:`.mesh.needsFixing` function.
* The :meth:`.fslmaths.run` method now accepts :attr:`.wrappers.LOAD` as an
  output specification.
* Fixed a bug in the :class:`.Mesh` class to prevent indices from being loaded
  as floating point type.
* Fixed a bug in the :func:`.resample` function.
* Fixed a bug in the :class:`.MGHImage` class, which was causing pixdims to
  be overridden by scales derived from the affine.


Deprecated
^^^^^^^^^^


* :func:`.calculateMatrix` - its functionality has been moved to the
  :func:`.affine.rescale` function.


2.7.0 (Wednesday 6th November 2019)
-----------------------------------


Added
^^^^^

  value of :meth:`.IdleLoop.neverQueue`.
* New :mod:`.bids` module, containing a few simple functions for working with
  `BIDS <https://bids.neuroimaging.io>`_ datasets.
* New :func:`.image.loadMetadata` function, and ``loadMeta`` option to the
  :class:`.Image` class, to automatically find and load any sidecar JSON files
  associated with an image file.


Changed
^^^^^^^


* Internal reorganisation in the :mod:`.idle` module.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fixed incorrect usage of ``setuptools.find_packages``, which was causing
  unit tests to be installed.

  ``dcm2niix``.


Deprecated
^^^^^^^^^^

^^^^^^^


* The :class:`.GiftiMesh` class no longer creates copies of the mesh
  vertex/index arrays. This means that, these arrays will be flagged as
  read-only.
* The :class:`.Mesh` class handles vertex data sets requiring different
  triangle unwinding orders, at the cost of potentially having to store
  two copies of the mesh indices.


Fixed
^^^^^


* The :class:`.FeatDesign` class now handles "compressed" voxelwise EV files,
  such as those generated by `PNM
  <https://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki/PNM>`_.

  file/directory paths.


Changed
^^^^^^^

* Minimum required version of ``nibabel`` is now 2.3.
* The :class:`.Image` class now fully delegates to ``nibabel`` for managing
  file handles.
* The :class:`.GiftiMesh` class can now load surface files which contain

* The ``name`` property of :class:`.Mesh` instances can now be updated.


Removed
^^^^^^^

* Many deprecated items removed.


Deprecated
^^^^^^^^^^


* Deprecated the :func:`.loadIndexedImageFile`  function, and the ``indexed``
  flag to the :class:`.Image` constructor.


1.13.3 (Friday February 8th 2019)
---------------------------------


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fixed an issue with the :func:`.dicom.loadSeries` using memory-mapping for
  image files that would subsequently be deleted.

  ``numpy``/``nibabel`` was returning read-only index arrays.


1.13.2 (Friday November 30th 2018)
----------------------------------


Changed
^^^^^^^


* The :meth:`.Image.resample` method now supports images with more than three
  dimensions.
* The :func:`fsl.utils.fslsub.submit` now returns the job-id as a string
  rather than a one-element tuple. It now also accepts a nested sequence
  of job ids rather than just a flat sequence. This will also changes the
  output from the function wrappers in :mod:`fsl.wrappers` if submitted.


Fixed
^^^^^


* Fix to the :class:`.ImageWrapper` regarding complex data types.


1.13.1 (Friday November 23rd 2018)
----------------------------------

^^^^^


* Added a missing ``image`` attribute in the :class:`.VoxelwiseConfoundEV`
  class.
* Make sure that FEAT ``Cluster`` objects (created by the
  :func:`.loadClusterResults` function) contain ``p`` and ``logp`` attributes,
  even when cluster thresholding was not used.


1.13.0 (Thursday 22nd November 2018)
------------------------------------


Added
^^^^^

Added
^^^^^


* The :func:`.parseVersionString` function accepts (and ignores) `local
